I tried to make this as "college" as possible.

Oh god, please tell me you like my coffee table books.

Oh my god.

But really this is a thread to post awesome coffee table books/zines/whatever that's totally bodacious.



These are my two favorite coffee table books:

http://www.amazon.com/Francesca-Woodman-Chris-Townsend/dp/0714844306/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1407154585&sr=8-2&keywords=francesca+woodman

That Elliott Smith book is great.

Right now I have an Elvis photo book, three issues of Tape Op, and two novels I'm reading on my coffee table. Usually its just whatever book(s) I'm currently reading.

this reminds me of the seinfeld when kramer wants to make a coffee table book about coffee tables.

and thanks brett for introducing me to Vania.. If i had the money i'd go right right now (8:00 a.m. sunday morning) and get a full sleeve of their work. it's so awesome)
as for my favs..

i had a bunch of coffee table books but i sold em all to used bookstores when i was fucked and hungry. i do like this one though so i held unto it..

(http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41cBkwK9ZAL._SY344_BO1,204,203,200_.jpg) really cool early 70s zine that had a semi-comic format in a way but was more like a homage to the culture that the writers/artists grew up in before punk, you know mad magazine and whatnot
